My buddy is actually a Cao Cao type top laner?

Chapter 42: Casa Famous Scene (Reversal Version)
RA training room.

While V5 was checking their information, a group of players, coaches and analysts from RA were also constantly analyzing V5's flaws.

no way.

Everyone wants to have a good New Year, and everyone wants to get good points and a big red envelope during the New Year.

"What do you think of V5's top laner Ultraman?"

The speaker was RA's head coach Shine (formerly RNG and DRX).

This year, he coached the current RA together with assistant coach Deceit (2022 Best Youth Training Coach). As a person with a Korean background, he has great respect for V5, which also has a Korean coach.

"I feel like we don't really need to worry about him. Haven't you noticed? Aside from the Aatrox in the German Cup final, he's mostly playing a functional top lane style."

No one in the room spoke.

Assistant coach Deceit took the initiative to speak up and put forward his own views.

"So you're saying we should stop focusing on their top lane and focus on V5's bottom lane? But that means we'll have to pit LeYan against Karsa."

"There's nothing we can do about it. In the current meta, the top lane is an isolated island, forcing everyone to fight in the bottom half."

Listening to the two coaches' discussion, the RA players in the room nodded in agreement.

Cube, on the other hand, looked indifferent.

If The shy was still in his prime, everyone would recognize that The shy was the strongest player in the top lane, but now that his prime has passed, there is no top laner in the LPL who is sincerely convinced of his position.

simply put.

After Lu Bu's youth was gone, everyone thought that each other was a traitor. Of course, if Lu Bu ever regained his youth.

That.
you know.

After the shooting of the halberd at the gate, Zhang Fei only dared to condemn him on the moral level.

and so.

Even though they won all the way to the Luoji Cup and even got a pentakill with the Aatrox in the final, in Cube's eyes, it was just bullying an old man named Zoom who had no oil.

It's his turn?
It’s hard to say whether it’s a pentakill or not, but it’s no problem to bully the old guy.

This is the road.

Everyone thinks they are awesome and others are losers.

But yes.

Without this kind of determination, you generally can't play on the top lane. After all, the top lane is almost the road with the most frequent single-line collisions.

"Ah Yi (Cube)."

"If we play against V5 in a few days, and we completely open up the top lane for you to go up against that V5 top laner, do you have the confidence to keep him pinned down in the top lane?"

After a brief study, Head Coach Shine turned his gaze towards the silent Cube.

Facing the coach's expectant eyes.

Cube thought about it, then nodded slowly.

It doesn't sound difficult. This time, the coach's requirement for him is not even to break through the top lane, but just to keep the opponent dead in the top lane.

this.
Isn’t it enough to have hands?
"No problem, Coach. I guarantee you, I'll lock him down in the top lane."

"Good! Very energetic!"

Shine patted his shoulder. Although Cube's performance last year wasn't great, he figured it shouldn't be a problem dealing with a rookie top laner.
Right?
A few days passed in a flash.

When the V5 team came out of their day-to-day training again, it was already time for their match against the RA team. Even though Luo Ji was reborn and walked out of the club again to breathe fresh air, he couldn't help but feel alive.

"I never expected that a few days would pass by in the blink of an eye."

"Being a professional player is like this. It's repetitive every day, with prison-like management. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many influencers who have successfully hooked up with professional players. With this kind of routine, even a little temptation can easily control the weak-willed."

Kasa pointed out something meaningful and specifically mentioned the two young players in the team.

"Alright, just say what you want to say. No need to beat around the bush. And I've already told you, I won't consider dating until I win the championship."

Luo Ji's face darkened.

In his view, this was not a reminder, it was an insult.

In his previous life, he thought it was outrageous. These internet celebrities really have a transfer period every year, and it is the same group of people every year, and they can still transfer successfully. I don’t know how many people in the entire LPL are actually like-minded people behind the scenes.

Some professional players like to play with internet celebrities, are not afraid of getting dirty, and think that talking about internet celebrities is not a big problem, but Luo Ji is different.

It doesn't matter to others.

he wants.

Xiao Yan nodded in agreement. Although he didn't think so at first, after this period of contact, he had slowly begun to be brainwashed by Luo Ji.

There is one sentence he thinks is very true:
That is to say, a good cook cannot cook without rice, but if there is rice, a good cook will come to cook.

Once you have achieved success, are you still worried about not having a good partner?
After saying this, Karsa even AOE'd Rookie next to him, but surprisingly, Rookie nodded in agreement.

He was indeed young back then, and he successfully waited until he won the championship before falling in love. This relationship has even been stable for many years.

but.
People will grow old.

What I thought was a fairy cave back then is now just a crack in a coffin.

When he heard his teammates say they wanted to abstain from sex, he responded faster than anyone else. From the German Cup to now, he has never been seen going out to get a hotel room.

"okay."

Listening to the team members' jokes, Nofe realized that they were almost there, so he took the initiative to speak, attracting the attention of all the players.

"Since we're almost at the competition venue, let's announce today's tactics in advance."

"Today, we are still starting with a conservative strategy."

"We'll first try to win the first game. After that, we'll start changing our tactics. Our only goal is to make it so that other teams can't figure out our system."

That's right.

Lord Nofe is ready to increase the strength of other LPL teams.

Let me mention it again here, that is, Coach Nofe's most notable characteristic is that he believes in the players. As the coach of S6 ROXtiger, he is very good at early-stage quick attacks. The EDG he coached in 17 was the bloodiest year in the entire EDG team building career.

To sum up the above two points.

He was already prepared to release Luo Ji little by little starting today.

Correct.

We have to play the bottom lane system and give others the concept that V5 is playing in the bottom lane, but at the same time we also give the top laner the right to fire freely, allowing him to keep his hands hot at all times.

In conjunction with his newly developed routine, he could use RA as a guinea pig today.

Luo Ji nodded.

Of course he knew what the coach meant. Some things are time-sensitive, such as the top lane island effect in the early stage of S12. Maybe it will be different after the New Year. So on this basis, as many routines as you can research that can be used in this version, you can use them. After all, they may not be used after this version.

By the way.

It can also trick other teams into wasting time to break down this strategy, which is a win-win situation!
quickly.

The competition between the two sides began.

In the first two games, V5 and RA almost won one game each.

After all, this was a team with LeYan. He was a strange guy. Five minutes ago, he was considered the best jungler in the league, even Karsa had to give him some space in the bottom lane. But after five minutes, his brain started to become a little unclear.

Relying on the advantage of being on the blue side first and the fast-paced play of the early lineup, RA successfully snowballed and indeed made V5 a little unbearable.

But the second one.

V5, who was familiar with RA's early rhythm, had already successfully taken over the opponent's rhythm.

even,

Luo Ji and Rookie also used Gragas and Viktor respectively to replicate a famous Karsa scene (reversal version)
[A ten-year-old V5 fan makes a grand comeback! ]

[Brothers, I'm here to watch IG split again. Rookie is so strong.]

[Kassadin: The first picks in top and mid are always Gragas and Viktoria. In every game with Viktoria, you beat the opposing mid and jungle like dogs in the jungle. You play Gragas like a god of war. Is it so difficult to fail once or twice a season? (Hit the chair)]

Seriously, IG is so gentle. This spring, you can see IG players everywhere except IG in the C position, WBG's top and bottom players, V5's mid laner, RA's jungler, and even two world champions playing crazy damage in the commentary booth.

of course.

These are not the points that RA thinks V5 is outrageous.

The really outrageous thing is that after reviewing the game, the coaches of the major teams suddenly discovered that in the second game, Karsa deliberately avoided fighting for one or two map resources in the early stage.

"No, what's going on in their heads?"

Outside the live broadcast room.

Abu and a group of EDG coaches and analysts were stunned in front of the screen.

Although he had not been a coach for a long time, he still had some understanding of the game. However, despite this, he could not figure out what was going on in V5's mind for a while.

Until the data engineer lists the data.

He realized belatedly that V5 was late in controlling the dragon, and did not exploit the opponent's jungle area even though they had some advantages a few times. It was all for the strategic points, and they even studied how to give up the advantage.

"I think I understand."

Maokai stroked his chin and said:

"It wasn't an intentional gift, or to put it more clearly, V5 took advantage of a strategic point."

"RA is known for their early-game comp, but V5 went the other way and chose a late-game comp. They avoid early-game fights. As long as their economy isn't too low, they can easily let one or two early dragon fights go. The key point is that the TP changes have made it difficult to force a fight now."

"By avoiding the fight, the enemy team can't exert their strength. Once the strategic point is refreshed, the teamfight can be completely reversed in one go."

"Like this game, they got a strategic point in 20 minutes, and pushing two towers was more profitable than winning the teamfight. It seems that the existence of strategic points should make the early game lineup more strategic."

It was clearly just two simple games.

However, many teams saw V5's terrible understanding of the version here.

In their eyes, RA is actually not weak, because RA has just defeated the galaxy battleship TES, and RA's fast attack style of play was also quite famous during this period.

Last year's RA (S11) ranked eighth in the spring season and third in the summer season.

It can definitely be called a strong team.

But even such a team was defeated by V5 in the second game by relying on their interpretation of the version, so much so that all the EDG coaches began to doubt their own vision.

after all
Nofe was once the head coach of EDG.

Faced with Abu's look of regret, Maokai said nothing and just kept using [Mind Steal].

lounge.

The V1 team, who tied with RA 1:5, were quite excited at this moment.

Putting aside the results of the German Cup, in the spring season, this was the first time they used a reorganized lineup to fight against the upper-middle team of last season. Although it was not a 2:0 crushing victory, they were able to tie the score with RA in BO3 and even held a few trump cards in their hands. This already shows the potential of this Nirvana V5.

"Well, after two games, I believe you all have a rough idea of ​​RA's strength."

in the room.

Nofe's voice still echoes:
"In the next third game, there are two possibilities for RA."

"One option is to continue their aggressive playstyle, in which case their primary target will be the bottom lane. The other option is to lose to us in the second game and then play a late-game comp with us in the third. In that case, the primary clashes will be in the jungle and large neutral resource areas."

"Personally, I'm more inclined to think they'll choose the first approach."

"But I'm not going to give them that chance. I'm going to push them to the third lane and force RA to play their jungle core."

Hear this.

Everyone in the room understood what he meant.

After fighting the opponent openly for two games, in the third game, Nofe decided to play dirty with the opponent. While restricting the opponent's tactical play, he activated the ultimate weapon in the top lane again.

For this decision.

Xiao Yan in the bottom lane agreed wholeheartedly.

At this point in time, Xiao Yan, like Luo Ji, is also learning how to become a qualified main player.

But the tactics in the previous games were almost all centered around the bottom lane, which gave him exposure while also putting him under particularly great pressure on the field.

how to say?

It's probably Rookie's style of playing, eating grass and milking. Whenever he is the C in a wave, if he eats milk but doesn't perform well, he will be bullied by the barrage.

Although he is JKL's substitute, his personality does not allow him to be as great as Ge Ge in a short period of time, and public opinion has affected his mentality to some extent.

Now we hear that resources are tilted.

Not to mention being angry, I even wish this kind of tilt would happen more often.

He really can’t bear it alone!!!

"How's it going? My Meng, how's your hand feeling today? Can you make some moves?"

Seeing that no one in the room objected and was even a little excited, Nofe turned his gaze back to Luo Ji, the top laner.

Still a reassuring figure.

Luo Ji simply nodded calmly, not even showing much excitement on his face, although this expression was most likely just him pretending to be an expert without saying anything.

but.
It is undeniable.

This attitude of remaining calm even when facing a collapse of Mount Tai really gives people a sense of security.

soon.

The last game of BO3.

Both sides decided to firmly implement their own tactics, but just as the RA coach thought about it, he found that Nofe shamelessly banned both Crocodile and Jayce.

Beast!
Shouldn't the third game be a default where everyone shows off their unique skills?

What do you mean by banning my fast attack?
Without these two early-game top laners, with Cube's hero pool, he could only choose from the top laners in the version. He was so angry that he targeted Rookie's two balls and one Ji, and then dismantled the double-circle system that V5 was best at in BP.

finally:
RA: Top Kennen, Jungle King of the Ruined King, Mid Zoe, Bottom Jinx + Female Tank
V5: Top Gun, Jungle Prince, Mid Victor, Bottom Aphelios + Thresh
When you see the option to bring in Graves on the top unit.

Behind the screen.

Whether it was the audience, EDG's coaches and analysts, or even many scouts from other clubs, they were all subconsciously stunned for a moment.

Although Luo Ji has never said that he can play Male Gun, as a newcomer brought up by Saint Spear Brother, no one would believe you if you said he couldn't play Male Gun.

so.
